Alexander List, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:
apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc3 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1161655 Wired and wireless networking don't work after upgrade ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098298 Title: NetworkManager fails to detect link status change -- Intel 82577LM e1000e Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1.)

Verify NetworkManager detects the Wired Connection 3.) stop NetworkManager 4.) unplug LAN cable 5.) start NetworkManager Result: NetworkManager doesn't detect that eth0 is not in the RUNNING state Plugging in LAN cable doesn't change state either, i.e. eth0 remains unconfigured. ----- root@thinkpad:~# service network-manager stop network-manager stop/waiting root@thinkpad:~# ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:26:2d:f6:06:8b inet addr:10.201.4.52 Bcast:10.201.7.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 inet6 addr: fe80::226:2dff:fef6:68b/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:17695 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:14813 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:17180328 (17.1 MB) TX bytes:3811166 (3.8 MB) Interrupt:20 Memory:f2500000-f2520000 ## unplug network cable root@thinkpad:~# ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:26:2d:f6:06:8b inet addr:10.201.4.52 Bcast:10.201.7.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 inet6 addr: fe80::226:2dff:fef6:68b/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:17695 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:14813 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:17180328 (17.1 MB) TX bytes:3811166 (3.8 MB) Interrupt:20 Memory:f2500000-f2520000 ## dmesg: [ 894.264179] init: network-manager main process (6194) killed by KILL signal [ 899.925268] e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Down root@thinkpad:~# service network-manager start network-manager start/running, process 7702 # nm-tool [...] -
